I thank the Lord Jesus Christ for the talent He has bestowed on all of us!
I have been artistic all of my life and love experimenting with different mediums and techniques. This blog is my creative outlet to share my passion for cardmaking and papercrafting!

If
you have not had a chance to visit the above challenge sites or SNSS Blog/FB Page yet, I encourage you to do so- wonderful inspiration
from all!

To
create this card:

1).
On a piece of white cardstock, stamp the sunflower images from Prim Blessings with Versafine™ Onyx
Black ink and heat emboss with clear embossing powder. Watercolor the flowers with water-based
markers and fussy-cut out each sunflower.

3).
Ink the sentiment from Prim Blessings with suede ink, stamp repeatedly onto a
piece of light brown designer paper (offsetting the sentiment as you re-ink and
stamp down the panel).

4).
Add the stamped panel directly to the card front and the fussy-cut sunflowers
with dimensional foam.

5).
De-static a scrap piece of vanilla cardstock with an embossing powder tool, ink
the sentiment from Prim Blessings with Versafine™ Onyx Black ink, heat emboss
with clear embossing powder and once cooled, create the banner. Color the little hearts on the sentiment
banner with a cherry marker and use a suede marker for the hearts on the hand
stamped panel. Mount the sentiment
banner to the card front with dimensional foam.

6).
Use a clear glitter pen to add shimmer to the flower centers and petals and
glossy accents all of the hearts to finish off the card.

Beautiful card, Julie. I love sunflowers. They're always such a happy looking flower. That's the first thing I noticed about your card and the, of course, the lovely details pulled me in. All those lovely pieces of Designer Paper work so well together. I had thought the brown piece with the repeated sentiment was also Designer Paper, you stamped it so beautifully. Great card! Thanks so much for joining our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.

Oh, Julie, this is such a beautiful card, and I LOVE sunflowers! I have this set and am now so inspired to use it! I love how you've repeated the sentiment for one of the panels, and I love your colors and DP! Beautifully done, sweet friend! Hugs!

Thanks for playing along with us at the Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week Julie, nice to have you back again. I don't know what it is about Sunflowers, but they just instantly put a smile on one's face. Yours are especially beautiful and your use of the sketch challenge at SCS just sets them off perfectly. Wonderful, wonderful card!
